Jane Estes Vaden is the daughter of Major Anderson Glenn (evidently Major was his first name, not his rank) and Eliza Jane Estes. (I do have a copy from Ancestry.com which shows that a Major Anderson Glenn, of Pendleton, S.C. served in the War of 1812.) Eliza Jane and Anderson were married in Estill County Kentucky, according to county records March 1, 1823. They had the following known children: Major Anderson, Jr., Jane, James, William and Jonsa. These last three come from the census records. I have a copy of Major Anderson Jr.'s death certificate from Buchanan County, Missouri in 1921 which lists his parents as the above.
Eliza Jane Estes's father was Brazil Estes of South Carolina. Her mother MAY have been Susannah Clem, or Clem something. She had brothers Lot (my gggrandfather), Charles, David, and Elisha, all of Estill County, Kentucky, but born in Tennessee. Much of this information comes from a Rev. War Pension application which was evidently pursued by Brazil's children after his death. Son's Charles and Lott give oath that their father went to Georgia and South Carolina to prove his service, and brought back the information needed, gave it into the hands of a lawyer, and never heard from it again. This record also states that Brazil died about 1851, presumably in Estill County, Kentucky. This pension rejected, presumably because Brazil was dead and they didn't give money to children of the deceased.
1830's Kentucky land records show Brazil as taking land on Gassy Branch of Station Camp Creek in Estill County, Kentucky.
My gggrandfather Lot Estes married first Patsy Henry, who was the mother of his children, in 1836 in Estill County. By 1878 he was widowed and married Betsy Stagner, then in her 60's, in what I presume would have been a caretaker kind of situatuion. His marriage license from Madison County Kentucky, where he went to live near his son Mose, lists his parents as Braseal and Susannah of South Carolina, hence my hedging on the names of Eliza Jane Estes's parents. Lot died in Madison County, Kentucky in 1890.
Sorry this is so long...hope it helps.
